That book (Sam) really wasn't clicking with me and had become almost a chore to read by the second issue for me for a lot of the same reasons you've mentioned in reviews. I haven't tried Sex Criminals as a result.

Sex Criminals is better than Satellite Sam, the premise is more unique, there are less characters, and the art makes it easier to tell them all apart. I recommend it, and besides, if you don't read it, you're probably prejudiced

I might pick it up, I've been reading all this stuff from outside the norm lately it's hard to get back into comics shop comics. You should read Battling Boy, have you had a chance to check that out yet? (I'm a big proponent of Paul Pope's new book to atone for mistakenly doing him a disservice years ago.)

I read the first issue of Satellite Sam and I didn't like it. I'm sure I'll enjoy Sex Criminals, though.
